Should the R8000 UI see devices connected via a GS308 switch?
In the supplied user interface, on the Basic tab, "attached devices/wired devices" area, should I be seeing any info at all (like status, IP, MAC address) for devices on a connected GS308v2 or is ...
You should see all devices connected to the switch
You should see all devices connected to the switch
Thank you!
As long as the switch as after the router.
cable modem -> R8000 router -> GS308 switch -> devices
This is considered after the router, yes?
I replaced the switch with a new GS308v3, changed to new cables and still can't "see" the devices on the switch.
All devices work fine if I connect them directly to the router but not on the (new) switch.
I assume it doesn't matter which of the 4 ports I use to connect the switch to the router and that it's okay to be using the other 3 ports for other devices simultaneously
And that it doesn't matter which port on the switch that I use to connect to the router?
Either my expectatons are wrong, the router is broken or my connections are wrong?
